Paper Play What time is it? It is 3 o’clock. What time is it, Mr. Wolf? is a fun game to practice today’s expressions. All the children are lined up on a wall. At the other end of the room there is a leader. All the children yell "What time is it, Mr. Wolf?" and the leader, with her back to the children at all times, yells out a time like "10 o’clock!". The children take 10 steps closer to the leader. After two or three times of calling out times, when the children yell "What time is it Mr. Wolf?", the leader will yell “It’s time to eat you!" and turn and run after the children. The children need to run back to the wall they came from before they are caught by the leader. The child the leader catches is then the new wolf.
